Geng Jian chose to follow him loyally, but whether or not he could withstand the test would depend on his performance in the future.
After Yang Wu subdued Geng Jian, he then went to look for Shu Luoqiu.
Shu Luoqiu was a very cold person, and had a kind of proud and aloof aura. This kind of person was a loner, and usually did not have many friends. If he could make friends with someone, then he would definitely go through life and death with them.
He had the strength of a top level general, and was considered an expert in the mortal world. He chose to rely on the Yang Clan, in addition to wanting to obtain the Profound Congealing Pill, there was also another reason, and that was that Yang Wu wanted to take revenge for him.
"Your enemy is the Black Hand List's number one toad?" Yang Wu looked at Shu Luoqiu in astonishment and asked.
Shu Luoqiu nodded and replied, "Yes."
The toad's strength was very formidable, but he had the strength of a top level king, and was one of the top ten kings of the king rankings. The gap between Shu Luoqiu and the other party was not ordinary. Yang Wu could not understand how there could be a grudge between them.
Shu Luoqiu simply replied with four words, "The enmity of killing my father."
This time Yang Wu thoroughly understood, and asked, "If you came here just to repay a debt of gratitude, then you don't have to do this."
He did not kill the toad intentionally to take revenge for the other party, but the toad wanted to kill him, so he killed him instead. He did not specifically want to take revenge for Shu Luoqiu.
Shu Luoqiu knelt down and solemnly said, "Give me the King Pill, and I vow to follow you to the end."
Yang Wu hesitated for a moment before saying, "Good, I hope you will keep your word."
Shu Luoqiu was still very young, he looked to be in his early thirties, but in fact he was even younger. His real age was only around 27 or 28 years old, but because of the years and hatred, he looked a bit older.
In addition, he had overdrawn his foundation, and in the process of desperately cultivating, he had damaged his foundation. It would not be easy for him to break through to the Earth Sea Realm. This was also the reason why he wanted to give up his freedom to Yang Wu in exchange for the Profound Congealing Pill.
The reason why Yang Wu agreed to Shu Luoqiu's request was because he hoped that this person could give him a pleasant surprise. There were plenty of generals in the Death Legion, but there weren't many who could be of great use. Even if Xue Ji, Du Guang Fo, and the others had broken through to the Earth Sea Realm, their future growth was limited. They weren't as young as Shu Luoqiu, and only Zheng Xiaohu had some room for growth. The others still needed to be observed.
Yang Wu had a long-term plan. He would first recruit Shu Luoqiu and see if he could become a sharp sword. He could do things that the Death Legion soldiers found inconvenient to do.
It was impossible for Yang Wu to give the Profound Congealing Pill to Shu Luoqiu right now, he had to observe him for a period of time, and determine that he was loyal to him, and then give him the Profound Congealing Pill. At present, he wanted to let him lurk around his enemies, and spy on some of the situation.
There was also another person, Pang Yuan, who was ignored by Yang Wu. He was so ugly that no one wanted to think about him.
After Yang Wu dealt with the newly recruited people, he planned to go to the Royal Academy to have a look. He had already talked to Chen Yan, and would report to the Royal Academy as soon as possible. He would first become a member of the Royal Academy, and then participate in the Martial Arts Competition. He wanted to become the Martial Champion.
He was a dignified Lesser Martial Earl, whose battle prowess could kill a top level King, and yet he was competing with a bunch of youngsters who were still in the General Realm for the Martial Champion position. He did not feel that he was shameless, after all, he was still a teenager.
Just as Yang Wu was about to go out, two waves of guests suddenly came to visit.
Outside the Yang Family's Mansion, Wan Lanxin came with her father, Wan Tianlong.
They were riding mighty horses, and did not bring any attendants with them. They were dressed in casual clothes and came out to visit.
After Wan Lanxin changed into casual clothes, her style became completely different. Her original valiant charm was reduced a little, and she became more beautiful. Her tall and slender figure was perfectly covered by her light blue clothes, and her slender and powerful legs were extremely seductive. People could not take their eyes off her.
She was already 23 years old, and was in the stage of maturity. Whether it was her appearance or her figure, she had already developed well. During the time she had returned to the Royal City, there were already people who ranked her as one of the top ten beauties in the Royal City. This was enough to show her astonishing charm.
Wan Tianlong was proud of his daughter. Not only was his daughter good-looking, but she had also become a young King in the Earth Sea Realm, second only to a limited number of people. Her future was limitless, and it was enough to bring glory to the family.
Unfortunately, she was a girl, and would eventually get married.
Just as Wan Lanxin and Wan Tianlong arrived at the Yang Family's Mansion, another group of people came from another direction.
It was a luxurious soft couch carried by four people. There were palace maids and eunuchs following on the left and right, and there were also dozens of guards riding mighty horses. This was the treatment that only nobles could have when they went out.
Wan Tianlong's vision was extraordinary. When he saw the soft couch woven by phoenixes, he hurriedly called out to his daughter, "Lanxin, get down from the horse to greet the Princess."
After he finished speaking, he had already gotten down from the horse's back. Wan Lanxin did not hesitate and quickly got down from the horse, respectfully standing at the side with her father.
They thought that the Princess and her party would only pass by here, but they did not expect the other party to stop in front of them. The Princess was led down from the soft couch by someone.
Princess Xiao Han, she came out in a splendid dress. The Princess's noble aura radiated everywhere. That innate temperament made the surrounding atmosphere somewhat oppressive. This was the majesty of the Imperial Family. In every part of the Imperial City, the Imperial Family members were all high and mighty. Even if the Princess was still a young girl, she already had the aura to intimidate everyone.
Apart from her noble aura, her appearance was like a delicate flower that had just bloomed. Her sparkling eyes were suffused with a jade-green radiance, her tender skin seemed to be dripping with water, and her slender waist swayed like a willow tree. All of her features were filled with a moving aura.
"Greetings to Your Highness." Wan Tianlong and Wan Lanxin both saluted and greeted Tang Xiaohan.
Tang Xiaohan glanced at Wan Tianlong and Wan Lanxin. She did not know them, so she just nodded to them and said, "You may rise."
Then, she took small steps towards the Yang Family's Mansion.
The eunuch beside her shouted towards the Yang Family's Mansion, "Princess Xiao Han has arrived, Yang Family, please come out to receive her."
This voice was not soft, so the people of the Yang Family could hear it clearly. Yang Wu, who was about to reach the door, also heard it. His face revealed a puzzled expression as he muttered, "What is this girl doing here."
The Yang Family's door opened, and the Death Legion soldiers guarding here lined up in two rows, respectfully welcoming the Princess inside.
Wan Lanxin, who was at the side of the road, was a bit at a loss. Her expression was not very good. She had heard that the Emperor had bestowed a marriage between Yang Wu and the Princess. Even though Yang Wu had already rejected this heaven-sent match, but with Yang Wu's limelight, would the Imperial Family let him go? Would the Princess let him go?
If she was the Princess, she would also be tempted by Yang Wu.
"Father, let's go." Wan Lanxin said to Wan Tianlong in a low voice.
The Princess was beautiful, so there was no need to talk about her family. Wan Lanxin was not very comfortable in her heart. She did not want to have any conflict with the Princess, so she could only retreat.
Wan Lanxin sighed in his heart and prepared to leave with Wan Lanxin. At this time, Yang Wu walked out. The first thing he did was not greet Tang Xiaohan, but looked at Wan Lanxin and called out happily, "Sister, you're here."
Yang Wu directly walked past Tang Xiaohan, who was smiling like a flower, and quickly walked towards Wan Lanxin.
Yang Wu's actions were very disrespectful to the Princess, and the eunuchs and palace maids around the Princess were angry.
However, they did not dare to say anything. This was a Marquis who even dared to defy an imperial edict, so it was not their turn to criticize.
Tang Xiaohan lightly stomped her foot and said angrily, "Yang Wu, stop."
"Princess, please wait a moment. I'll go greet my sister first." Yang Wu turned around and responded, still quickly walking towards Wan Lanxin.
Wan Lanxin instantly smiled.
She no longer avoided, but took the initiative to walk towards Yang Wu. She opened her arms and gave Yang Wu an incomparably affectionate hug.
Originally, Wan Lanxin did not want to make things difficult for Yang Wu. She knew that Yang Wu was thinking about the "slug" in his heart and did not want to increase the burden in his heart. However, she had already seen through it. Even without her, there would be other women pestering Yang Wu. Why not work hard and persevere? Who knows, there might be a day when the flowers blossomed and bear fruit.
After Tang Xiaohan saw Yang Wu and Wan Lanxin hugging each other, her beautiful eyes flashed with anger and her heart felt incomparably sour. She had made a great decision to take the initiative to see Yang Wu, but Yang Wu gave her such a "meeting gift". No one would be able to stand it.
Tang Xiaohan wanted to slam the door and leave, but after hesitating for a moment, she endured it. She had always known that Yang Wu was deliberately avoiding her, and also said that he already had someone in his heart. The woman in front of her should not be the one he spoke of. He was doing this on purpose.
Yang Wu and Wan Lanxin did not go too far. After hugging, they separated. Yang Wu's face was brimming with a brilliant smile, and Wan Lanxin revealed a rare blush. Although she had a forthright personality, doing this in the hall in front of so many people was still a bit unnatural.
"Uncle Wan, you also came. Please come in." Yang Wu looked at Wan Tianlong and said.
Wan Tianlong cautiously said: "Princess Her Highness is here. Let's invite Princess Her Highness in first."
Tang Xiaohan said in a stifled voice: "This princess's face is not as big as the two of you."
"Please forgive us Princess." Wan Tianlong was frightened by Tang Xiaohan's words and trembled as he bowed and said.
Yang Wu turned his head to look at Tang Xiaohan and said with a smile: "I didn't know that Princess Her Highness was coming. Please come in and sit."
Yang Wu really did not put Tang Xiaohan's little tricks in his eyes. If he wanted to take care of this little girl, it would be easy.
Tang Xiaohan was also not a slut. She did not want to make things difficult for Yang Wu here, so she nodded and followed Yang Wu into the Yang Manor.
Wan Tianlong consciously walked in front with Wan Lanxin, but he did not dare to be impudent.
At this time, Yang Zhennan walked out with Su Roumei. They did not dare to be as casual as Yang Wu and greeted the princess with a bow: "Yang Zhennan (Su Roumei) greets Princess Her Highness."
Tang Xiaohan hurriedly went over to help them up and said: "Count Yang, Countess Yang, there is no need to be so courteous. I only came to ask Yang Wu why he is not willing to marry me. What is not good about me? I will change."
